As with everything in life, planning is key. Positioning the fabric before you start will help you find the perfect spot for your new design, and make necessary last-minute adjustments.
You can use paint or chalk to mark the border. After you mark the border, remove the Garden Map and prepare the space for planting. Simply trimming the grass is usually enough to prep the area, however, area prep requirements are based on the current state of the area as well as soil composition. You might have to remove weeds or shrubs before you start. If the soil is too hard, it is recommended that you till the soil before planting. Soils with too much clay and too much sand can both be remedied by lots of good organic matter like compost
You can use all-purpose garden staples to anchor landscape fabric to the soil quickly and easily. Additionally, since larger Garden Maps are printed on multiple sheets of landscaping fabric, using landscape staples ensures that weeds won’t grow in between the pieces of your Garden Map.
Sounds easy, right? That’s because it is! That’s the beauty of using a PBN design versus doing everything freehand.
Cut the area marked with an X on the Map, dig a hole underneath, and place the plant. Return some of the soil you removed on top of the root.
No need to measure the distance between the plants – using a Garden Map makes the process a lot easier and much more precise. The result will be flawless in just a fraction of the time.
How much mulch should you buy? Multiply the length and width of your space to determine the total square footage of your Map. We recommend a 2″ deep layer of mulch.
If you’re buying 2 cubic foot bags:
Square Footage / 12 = Total bags needed
If you’re buying 3 cubic foot bags:
Square Footage / 18 = Total bags needed
Whether you’re starting out and want a small pepper garden or are more advanced and want a larger plot full of herbs, fruits, and vegetables, we’re here to help you cultivate.
